“Those stats include those who died due it complications of the flu; i.e., they had other disease(s) and then got the flu. What are the stats on the completely healthy that contacted the flu and then died? As a completely healthy adult, what are my odds of surviving the flu (just the flu) vs. Ebola?”

That’s not relevant. A person may have some other condition and then gets the flu and dies is a flu victim as they would still be alive if they had not had the flu.

Tens of thousands of Americans will be killed by the flu and the flu enters the US via travelers from Asia.

Unless you are in Liberia rolling around in Ebola blood tainted blood, the chances of you getting struck by lightening is much greater than getting Ebola.

Apparently it doesn’t matter if I’m in Liberia or Ohio. Ebola is here. At least, that’s what my obama voting pathologist cousin now says. I’m a very healthy adult. If I get Ebola, is it better than getting the flu?

As far as I know, we don't willingly import lightening into the United States. If they or you want to be stupid with Ebola, go ahead.
